cyberbunny, please go and re-read the FAQ

Attachments of ANY kind (This includes HTML, images and uuencoded files)
are not tolerated on the iTribe lists.

There are members of the list(s) who do not have any other than plain text
capability, and images, such as those you just sent, will royally SCREW up
their systems. Also people who access their mail from work can lose their
jobs for receiving an attachment (again HTML, images, and encoded documents
fall into this) at work.

I was only able to use it when I descrambled it (using ROT-13 -- in
Netscape, View/Unscramble). The JPGs came out fine after that.

Some folks do, some folks don't. My email account at work, for
instance, charges for every 10K sent or received -- the two images sent
along were about 75K apiece, it seems, so that one piece of mail
would've cost me a bundle.

An easier way of dealing with attachments, HTML, large files* and things
like that are to toss them onto a webpage and send a message to the
list, inviting people there; or send it directly to people who've asked,
or seem interested in it. Sending a 150K post to a list serving 200-odd
people also chews up a considerable amount of bandwidth, especially so
since most of it could have been saved.
